About the symposium

A Symposium Built Around the Complexities of Cardiac Disease in Pregnancy

We warmly invite you to participate in the 6th Annual Cardio Obstetrics University Symposium, the only virtual conference dedicated exclusively to the multidisciplinary management of cardiac conditions in pregnancy and the peripartum period.

Over two intensive days, our program addresses the full clinical spectrum, from congenital and valvular heart disease to peripartum cardiomyopathy, hypertension, arrhythmias, acropathies, and the critical decisions surrounding labor, delivery, and anesthesia. Each topic is explored through didactic sessions immediately followed by complex patient case presentations and structured expert panel discussions, making this a uniquely practical, case-immersive learning experience.

This symposium is an essential resource for any clinician whose work touches maternal cardiac care. We look forward to welcoming you in 2026.
